Lyrics

You?re sick and tired of fixing things
But it?s all that you know
All that you know
Some say a gift is what you possess
Most times it feels like a curse
Feels like a curse ? curse

It?s just not your way ? to cower or do what they say
Big brothers hands in your pocket ? taking more than he needs
It?s just not your way ? to smile and make their day
Sometimes you think you?ll give up ? but that?s just not your way
That?s not your way, that?s not your way
Just not your way

They think and say you have too much
But they don?t see what you see
See what you see
Livin up high in their mansions
Can?t let them dictate to you
Dictate to you ? you

It?s just not your way ? to cower or do what they say
Big brothers hands in your pocket ? taking more than he needs
It?s just not your way ? to smile and make their day
Sometimes you think you?ll give up ? but that?s just not your way

You know who you are ? and they?ll never make you tame
Forget their promises ? cause it all remains the same
For the good of us all ? their minds must change today?

It?s just not your way ? to cower or do what they say
Big brothers hands in your pocket ? taking more than he needs
Sometimes you think you?ll give up ? but that?s just not your way
That?s not your way, that?s not your way
Just not your way

That?s not your way, that?s not your way
Just not your way
